Burleigh Dodds Science Publishing is a new “climate-smart” publisher in agricultural science. We are building a collection of review chapters, each written by a leading expert, with a programme of forthcoming books due to start publishing in the next couple of months; you can read more here: www.bdspublishing.com.

We will shortly be publishing new volumes covering poultry and eggs - Achieving sustainable production of poultry meat Vols 1-3 edited by Steven C Ricke, University of Arkansas, USA and Todd Applegate, University of Georgia, USA and Achieving sustainable production of eggs Vols 1-2 edited by Julie Roberts, University of New England, Australia.

In addition one of the contributors to Poultry Vol 1 Prof. Michael Grashorn is Secretary of the European Federation.

I’m sure the books will be of great interest to your members; perhaps we could work together to bring these important reference works to their attention whilst helping to promote your services and events.
